The Orion … Continue reading
Sun Blasts Flare at Earth: New Year’s Eve Storm?
You can say what you like about our nearest star, but as this latest solar eruption proves, it certainly has impeccable timing. On Monday (Dec. 28), a sunspot cluster erupted, blasting an M-class flare directly at Earth. The extreme-ultraviolet radiation immediately washed over our upper atmosphere, initiating an ionization event that caused a radio blackout over South America, Africa and … Continue reading

A new MIT spin-off is scheduled to begin selling the technology in early 2017 It may not be ready for gift-giving this year, but come 2017 this could be the hottest item on wish lists around the world: a $300 device that enables “X-ray vision.” The technology has been under development for more than two years, and now a group … Continue reading
Signs of the ‘Antibiotic Apocalypse’ in the UK?
A bacteria that resists one of the last-ditch antibiotics has turned up in the UK, the BBC reports. The announcement brings the world one step closer to the Antibiotic Apocalypse, the day when all bacteria completely resist all available treatment. That may sound hyperbolic, and, indeed, experts think the threat to public health at this time is low. New Resistant … Continue reading
7 things ridiculed by conventional science – but which are said to be true
Conventional science denied existence of certain things despite the facts which prove their existence. However, having said that, here are 7 things ridiculed by conventional science but which are said to be true.

Hail the Hydra, an Animal That May Be Immortal
In ancient Greek myth, the Hydra was a multi-headed monster that grew two more heads for every one that it lost. As it turns out, the real-life animal named after this mythical beast may be even more tenacious. A new study finds that hydra — spindly, freshwater polyps — can live seemingly forever, without aging. Unlike most multicellular species, hydra don’t … Continue reading
“More Complex Than a Galaxy?” –Human-Brain Intelligence Networks Identified for First Time
According to physicist, Roger Penrose, What’s in our head is orders of magnitude more complex than anything one sees in the Universe: “If you look at the entire physical cosmos,” says Penrose, “our brains are a tiny, tiny part of it. But they’re the most perfectly organized part. Compared to the complexity of a brain, a galaxy is just an inert … Continue reading
Huge comets may pose ‘inevitable’ danger to Earth – astronomers
The recent discovery of hundreds of giant comets in our outer solar system has prompted astronomers to sound high alert. They says the space bodies move on unstable orbits and can flood inner solar system making impacts of comet debris with Earth “inevitable.” Researchers from Armagh Observatory and the University of Buckingham have warned on Tuesday that discovery of hundreds of giant … Continue reading
Asteroid that could ‘injure THOUSANDS’ to skim Earth TONIGHT two days after its discovery
Our planet could be in danger of an unexpected asteroid that is hurtling toward the Earth. The asteroid will pass by the Earth dangerously close. Astronomers were oblivious to the existence of the space rock, which is big enough to destroy a town and called 2015 YB, until Wednesday. The Slooh Telescope internet channel is hosting a special live broadcast … Continue reading
